In MS NAV, to transfer from CWIP (proj module) to PPE, I just write a JE dr. fixed asset # and cr. Project #.
In D365 Finance and Operations, I can't write a JE. Not sure if this is the consultant design flaw or it's D365 limitation. (I raised this issue so many times during system testing phase). In order to transfer a CWIP project to PPE, I have to do 5 steps: create estimate, cost estimate, calculate, post and eliminate. Even though they are a lot of steps, at least during the testing phase, I was able to transfer to PPE without a problem. But going to a real life data, I can't get the first step: create estimate to calculate correct cost of the project when the project is old (i.e. old cost from NAV was imported to D365 during data migration). Estimate step is 90% wrong despite the fact that I tried multiple ways: A. Forecast model: I have tried select all the following options: Original budget, revision F, remaining forecast. B. Copy from model : I have tried all the following options: Original, Remaining F. continuous "Yes", 'No", C. Update with beginning balance amount: I have tried with Yes and I have tried with No. I can't understand how the system include one cost and not the other for old or new costs (old cost = data migration, new costs = invoices or journal entries initiated and posted in D365)
